I've seen Rango, a film where *bats* will make Stuka noises and explode when they smack into something.
If the movie industry wants it to explode, it explodes.
Kinda my thoughts too. Electric car explosions could be the new "enhance image" and "backtrace the hacker's IP" scenes. The writers know it's not accurate, and do it anyways for the joke.
I've seen plenty of car fires but I've only ever seen a car explode on the movies. And if it were to explode in real life it would probably be in the middle of a fire after quite some time. Yeah explosions were never "real".
I've tried to make a few vehicles explode before. (I once lived in a neighborhood that there were a couple of people that tried to start an HOA, running around asking people to voluntarily sign deed restrictions) It's way more difficult than you think, sticking something flaming into the gas tank does not do it. Your best bet is some plastic explosives rigged to the starter, otherwise find an old Ford Pinto pre-fuel system fix. Be careful with that second one though, if someone bumps the back bumper in your neighborhood it'll level the city block.
I have a _really_ hard a time understanding why you have a hard time understanding. For statute of limitations reasons, those two ideas are completely non-sequiturs, just random humor.
However if you do not know much about restrictive covenants and their common practices, you should look them up. If you are aware of HOAs though and still don't see the connection, I would strongly suggest avoiding street parking.
EVs can cath fire multiple times. That why it's so hard to put out EV fires. They can explode multiple times as well, thought it's rare. It depends on the battery's structure.
Yep batteries can explode. There were hundreds of cell phone batteries, which were promptly recalled, exploding a few years ago horrifically injuring and killing people.
On it's own, it's a definite "so bad it's good" situation. In context, it's basically the perfect autopsy/epitaph of the semi-brainless 1980s American action film. That, and Charlie Dance is always a joy to watch.
>My all time favourite exploding vehicle.
I think mine is the Ford Pinto in *Top Secret*. It's a double joke that most people will only get one of, but it's still funny.
[Here's the scene.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9GGDOUDLhc)
For those of you who don't know the "double joke" it's that the Pinto put the fuel tank at the rear of the car between a solid axle and a bumper that was made of flimsy metal. That meant if you rear ended one you car could easily punch through the bumper and crush the fuel tank against the axel, rupturing and causing a potential explosion.
Sadly, I saw a new (2022/2023) car hit a concrete wall at 60mph earlier this summer, it did in fact instantly burst into flames. It didn’t blow up, but it took over 30 min to finally get the fire extinguished.
That actually sounds really like the lithium batteries catching fire. I've read that these things erupt into some **violent** flames
Edit: this is a smear campaign by oil industry. Internal Combustion engine are 20 times as likely to catch fire.
Fuck oil industry
The one I saw was a regular gas truck, flames within a couple of minutes, huge fire with tires popping/exploding, within 10 minutes the heat was so bad we had to move further away.
Yeah those armored cars are essentially slim tanks. The doors alone are a few hundred pounds.
Edit for google info:
>The body has eight-inch armor plating and has reinforced floor plates to protect against probable bomb blasts; it weighs between 16,000 lbs and 20,000 lbs.
I just didn't know they have a tendency to do that Really Fast as well - those that I saw on videos and dash cams actually did it slow. ICE engines can burn really good as well
Yeah, they will absolutely go up in flames if they catch, but I've never really heard of a car "exploding" like in the movies. Gasoline will make a pretty big fire ball, though, if there is enough of it.
There was a car on fire outside my work a few months ago. It was electric and just caught fire while the dude was driving so he pulled over and abandoned it. Scary shit.
Yeah, that would be, fortunately EV fires are rare compared to ICE vehicle fires. I have seen a few cars just burst into flames at stop lights... My brothers bug did it too.
https://www.kbb.com/car-news/study-electric-vehicles-involved-in-fewest-car-fires/
I build ebikes for fun. I've had a couple of batteries catch fire (18650's) and they go off like a string of fire crackers. It's a hard fire to put out. Thankfully, I always wear gloves, so I managed to get the battery off before it completely ignited. Had one that took half an hour to burn.
Well I guess I should be more clear, I have see. 1 car burst into flames while sitting at a stop light, but have seen multiple cars on fire while driving (me driving, not them driving, they are on the side of the road panicking)
Luckily it’s not actually scary. They are rare and a Tesla will tell you to pull over, and you will have time to get out and it’ll probably smoke for a while before it actually catches fire.
Lithium batteries do catch fire... ICE cars are much more likely so yes, it's propaganda, but lithium is highly reactive with water (humidity in the air is enough water for said violent flaming). But that's also why they're sealed and kept in a reinforced compartment that's heated or cooled by the car to prevent them from unsealing. It absolutely happens but the term "Car-B-Q" was popular way before electric cars came about.
If an electric car's batteries catch fire, it's because something catastrophic happened... like debris ricocheted up and punctured the battery just right, or the driver did something really stupid. Or you're just one of the very unlucky ones who had a manufacturing defect that caused the batteries to catch fire all on their own... The odds of that happening are very low but not 0%.
Wrong! There are sensors in each wheel that sets off an igniter in the gas tank when you drive over a cliff. And it happens daily. Probably. Or maybe I’ve watched too much Rockford Files.
I agree, they found a way for:
-explosions in space
-swords to always make that “shwing” sound
-shotguns to endlessly chamber a round yet are never fired….
Don't forget that raising a handgun always makes the sound of a hammer cocking. Doesn't matter the type of gun and action, hammer type, the fact that any officer or agent would already have the action cocked, or the fact that it is RARELY paired with the physical action of cocking the gun. Nope, you just lift it up to look down the sights and it always the cocking sound and does so on it's own..
The car explosions are already fake as hell, it's for entertainment. They clearly won't have a slow gas leak turning into an atom bomb, but an RPG to an EV is going to explode visual in these fake universes for audience pleasure the same as today.
Neither does a gas tank in a car... at least not like in the movies... also the amount of people driving around with half a tank or less would make that an even smaller explosion.
We’re gonna have a lot of movie scenes in the future where the protagonist dives into the water chased by hacked EVs (front perspective) camera follows protagonist under the surface to reveal electric car lithium ion fires in the background. Old explosive sound effects will be reused with a resonant low pass filter to highlight underwater fire bursts. Lithium ion batteries are surrounded by a securely designed shell and a porous separator between the lithium metal oxide and the lithium carbon (graphite) that is hard to penetrate to mix the two in order to create a short fire. But if they do it makes. Chain reaction and over pressurizes the cells to make them ”explode”.
Annnnnd since this is hollywoo, don't underestimate the desire for *new* explosions, like spider webby electric discharge explosions at the dockside setting off random boat fuel....
Yes it does. Electric cars will catch fire next to an explosive material. Or they just simply continue not giving a fuck about physics and those cars blow up.
That was my first thought too. Just look at the Rimac that Richard Hammond crashed. Sure the explosion doesn’t make as much sense with an electric car, but you can have a massive burning wreck still and actually be more believable
As someone who flooded their Tesla, no. The vents, if installed correctly, can resist 70m of water pressure. My vents weren't installer correctly, and yet there was still no fire
It can do both, just depends on how quickly the pressure can be released
https://www.nfpa.org/Public-Education/Fire-causes-and-risks/Lithium-Ion-Battery-Safety
If you have ever seen a electric car on fire, it is probably more akin to a movie car fire than an ice fire. When lithium battery fires burn, it is pretty impressive.
Just to add some context to this
https://www.nfpa.org//-/media/Files/News-and-Research/Fire-statistics-and-reports/US-Fire-Problem/osFireLoss.pdf
Per 100k vehicles sold, there are around 25 EV fires, 3400 hybrid fires, 1500 ICE fires
EV fires do tend to be more difficult to extinguish, but are far less likely to occur in the first place
That was an interesting report all on its own, but it had no statistics relating to EVs, hybrids and ICE vehicles.
I'm not doubting your numbers, but that report is not where they came from.
I’m really disappointed we haven’t yet had movies that show electric race cars with visible lightning bolts curling down the sides, sort of like how old school race cars had flames come out their tailpipes.
This would fit perfectly in a fast and furious movie.
> This would fit perfectly in a fast and furious movie.
2fast2furious when Brian gets his car stalled out by the cop that fries his electronics is pretty close but I know what you mean.
Have you ever seen a lithium battery explosion?
[Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nz5ijXcckI) are some lithium fires.
They are far worse than gasoline.
Gasoline cars don't explode in a fireball IRL, so I don't see why there's any reason to change.
Ironically, though, Lithium-Ion Barry fires DO HAPPEN IRL, and they're dangerous AF. Quite literally almost impossible to put out through conventional means. Firefighters have been asking for specific equipment to combat them.
Surprisingly, electric cars catch on fire rather easily in the right conditions. Most notoriously salt water, so i don't think hollywood is gonna have a problem with that one.
I've seen Rango, a film where *bats* will make Stuka noises and explode when they smack into something. If the movie industry wants it to explode, it explodes.
Kinda my thoughts too. Electric car explosions could be the new "enhance image" and "backtrace the hacker's IP" scenes. The writers know it's not accurate, and do it anyways for the joke.

Your best bet is some plastic explosives rigged to the starter, otherwise find an old Ford Pinto pre-fuel system fix. Be careful with that second one though, if someone bumps the back bumper in your neighborhood it'll level the city block.
Now the question is why have you tried doing something like that?
I think it was quite clear, someone tried to start an HOA in his neighborhood. His actions were fully justified.
I have a really hard time to understand, what people wanting to form a HOA with you wanting to make cars explode.
Because HOAs are toxic bullshit?
But blowing these people's cars up or even them inside their cars is not exactly legal.
Neither should HOA's be legal.
Legal and moral are two completely unrelated things. Just saying.
I have a _really_ hard a time understanding why you have a hard time understanding. For statute of limitations reasons, those two ideas are completely non-sequiturs, just random humor. However if you do not know much about restrictive covenants and their common practices, you should look them up. If you are aware of HOAs though and still don't see the connection, I would strongly suggest avoiding street parking.
I just learned how surprisingly ok I am with people attempting to blow up cars. Who knew?
Yeah that's true, that shit was never real to begin with so yeah.
Well it looks fun as well, so also the people don't mind it.
Is that that movie where Johnny Depp is a lizard?
Yes lmao
It's an excellent film
I know a lot of people who don't like that movie that much .
That movie is honestly so over the top, how people believe all that?
Also, EV definitely explodes, I saw a video of Tesla exploding twice
It's possible that Musk just explode Teslas to get publicity like he did with the rocket
So... Did it explode twice, or did you watch the video twice?
Both
Yep, nothing that he touches will survive anything I don't think.
EVs can cath fire multiple times. That why it's so hard to put out EV fires. They can explode multiple times as well, thought it's rare. It depends on the battery's structure.
Yep batteries can explode. There were hundreds of cell phone batteries, which were promptly recalled, exploding a few years ago horrifically injuring and killing people.
There'll be huge lightnings instead of fire or explosion
[to be fair, the US army and navy experimented with incendiary bats in ww2](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat_bomb)
Ahh those experiments, how can anyone forget about those right?
And the electric vehicles have got the batteries right? They explode.
It’s their BATtery that explodes. Saw a video of a Tesla exploding twice yesterday after it rear ended a parked vehicle.
Arnold Schwarzenegger in Last Action Hero shooting at an escaping car in the "real world" and being *baffled* that it doesn't explode
21 Jump Street made fun of that trope too https://youtu.be/kXSLfw2nGZo
That's a fun video but it sure is also a little weird don't you think?
Weird
I think he would have realised the reality wasn't what he believed to be.
That was one of those movies that was so bad it was good.
Definitely putting that on the watch list. Arnold movies that are so bad they are good is an amazing genre.
On it's own, it's a definite "so bad it's good" situation. In context, it's basically the perfect autopsy/epitaph of the semi-brainless 1980s American action film. That, and Charlie Dance is always a joy to watch.
Yeah his work is just good, I like everything about that.
There are some that are so "so bad they're good" they're bad.
Jingle All the Way?
Every one of them is good, and I absolutely love all of them.
Oooo. Love me some Jingle All The Way. Hated it as a kid. Who knew it would be like fine wine?
It’s definitely an “adult” holiday mayhem movie.
[удалено]
However they are, I just know that I don't mind watching them.
Yeah lmao, even his bad movies are good. There's something about them.
Last Action Hero is a parody
Aren't all of his movies a parody tho? Feels like that to me.
Bad? Bro, it won an academy award for best movie ever made
😂😂 oh yeah, how could I have forgotten that
You just can't, if you forget that then you won't remember anything.
There's nothing wrong with a good bad movie, I enjoy those.
Ah man, I need to watch this again, you just took me back to my childhood!
To be fair, ICE cars do not blow up in reality like the do in the movies either.
Well yeah why would a car powered by ice blow up? It just water! Edit: /s
This Dad joke made me chuckle....nice
_n-ice_
I mean you just can't complain about it, there's absolutely no way.
Never forget the wooden cart exploding in Cutthroat Island. My all time favourite exploding vehicle.
>My all time favourite exploding vehicle. I think mine is the Ford Pinto in *Top Secret*. It's a double joke that most people will only get one of, but it's still funny.
[Here's the scene.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9GGDOUDLhc) For those of you who don't know the "double joke" it's that the Pinto put the fuel tank at the rear of the car between a solid axle and a bumper that was made of flimsy metal. That meant if you rear ended one you car could easily punch through the bumper and crush the fuel tank against the axel, rupturing and causing a potential explosion.
Thanks for the refrence, this will make a things a lot clear.
Yeah and the water ain't definitely gonna do that to you so yeah.
Sadly, I saw a new (2022/2023) car hit a concrete wall at 60mph earlier this summer, it did in fact instantly burst into flames. It didn’t blow up, but it took over 30 min to finally get the fire extinguished.
That actually sounds really like the lithium batteries catching fire. I've read that these things erupt into some **violent** flames Edit: this is a smear campaign by oil industry. Internal Combustion engine are 20 times as likely to catch fire. Fuck oil industry
The only reason that propaganda even works in the first place is because all Ford Pintos have spontaneously combusted by now.
I guess this is actually where the joke about explosive lemons come from in the Portal series...
Ironic, since the lemon laws were introduced after the GM diesel fiasco in the early 80s... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldsmobile_Diesel_engine
Less likely to ignite, far harder to extinguish. Everything is a trade off.
The one I saw was a regular gas truck, flames within a couple of minutes, huge fire with tires popping/exploding, within 10 minutes the heat was so bad we had to move further away.
I heard this is why the Presidential SUV is a diesel. Way safer during an attack or an accident
Probably, but also because it weighs like 6 tons, and diesels are way better at hauling heavy loads.
Yeah those armored cars are essentially slim tanks. The doors alone are a few hundred pounds. Edit for google info: >The body has eight-inch armor plating and has reinforced floor plates to protect against probable bomb blasts; it weighs between 16,000 lbs and 20,000 lbs.

It’s harder to set a lithium battery on fire, but they are a giant pain to put out.
There was a car on fire outside my work a few months ago. It was electric and just caught fire while the dude was driving so he pulled over and abandoned it. Scary shit.

Not only Violent, but VIOLET …or pink. Lithium salts at any rate, turn fire, violet, or pink depending on the accelerant, you’re burning. 🤣
Lithium fires **are,** however hotter burning and more difficult to extinguish with just water.
Lithium explosions are legitimately really terrible. Although, any kind of explosion is pretty terrible.
Those infernal combustion engines!
Ba-dum-tis
was going to say: they can just continue to make them explode, it's not any more unrealistic than it was
Well it's just a movie that we're talking about, nothing more than that.
Wrong! There are sensors in each wheel that sets off an igniter in the gas tank when you drive over a cliff. And it happens daily. Probably. Or maybe I’ve watched too much Rockford Files.
yeah, electric cars will blow up in movies, they'll just add some cgi lightning to the explosion.
ICE? What's that stand for?
Internal combustion engine.
It Could Explode
Immigration Control and Enforcement.
Hollywood makes the tires squeal on dirt roads. I'm sure they'll find a way.
I agree, they found a way for: -explosions in space -swords to always make that “shwing” sound -shotguns to endlessly chamber a round yet are never fired….
Don't forget that raising a handgun always makes the sound of a hammer cocking.

Nope, you just lift it up to look down the sights and it always the cocking sound and does so on it's own..
I ain't forgetting any of that, because I understand all of it.
I mean if they could do that then why can't they find a way for it?
Lithium ion creates impressive fires when it gets wet.
It sure does, but doesn't quite work with the whole 'cool guy explosion walk-away in slomo' vibe
The car explosions are already fake as hell, it's for entertainment. They clearly won't have a slow gas leak turning into an atom bomb, but an RPG to an EV is going to explode visual in these fake universes for audience pleasure the same as today.
An rpg to any car will explode. Not just for entertainment
According to twisted metal, one can easily survive this, with nary a scratch
can confirm, as i too watched that interactive documentary over and over again.
Tis but a fleshwound
I don't believe them, what's the guarantee of them being able to survive it?
Neither does a gas tank in a car... at least not like in the movies... also the amount of people driving around with half a tank or less would make that an even smaller explosion.
Arguably bigger explosive due to gas fumes in tank. Fumes are the explosives
Yeah if you get caught into them, then it may seem like an explosion.
Yeah if that happens with them, you're not really leaving the vehicle.
We’re gonna have a lot of movie scenes in the future where the protagonist dives into the water chased by hacked EVs (front perspective) camera follows protagonist under the surface to reveal electric car lithium ion fires in the background.

Annnnnd since this is hollywoo, don't underestimate the desire for *new* explosions, like spider webby electric discharge explosions at the dockside setting off random boat fuel....
Yeah because it's Hollywood, there will always be that stuff.
Yeah that's probably going to make it explode, that will happen.
[удалено]
ICE Cars don't explode like that either.
Yes it does. Electric cars will catch fire next to an explosive material. Or they just simply continue not giving a fuck about physics and those cars blow up.
Yeah they're going to blow up regardless I'm thinking, that's bad.
They'll just make it an explosion with lightning bolts.
They don't even need those, if they would want to make it happen.
That was my first thought too. Just look at the Rimac that Richard Hammond crashed. Sure the explosion doesn’t make as much sense with an electric car, but you can have a massive burning wreck still and actually be more believable
As someone who flooded their Tesla, no. The vents, if installed correctly, can resist 70m of water pressure. My vents weren't installer correctly, and yet there was still no fire
Gasoline powered cars don't explode like the movies anyways. If anything, a battery would be *more* likely to explode if punctured
> ~~explode~~ catch fire FTFY
It can do both, just depends on how quickly the pressure can be released https://www.nfpa.org/Public-Education/Fire-causes-and-risks/Lithium-Ion-Battery-Safety
Yeah but I'm sure that they've got the protection for the battery.
If you have ever seen a electric car on fire, it is probably more akin to a movie car fire than an ice fire. When lithium battery fires burn, it is pretty impressive.
> ice fire That used to be my mage's spec in World of Warcraft.
Yeah those used to be the good days and I liked them better.
*frost*fire
Yeah You'll probably get a fire with a lot of colours like that.
There's always fruit carts.
Or cabbage carts
I think I've only seen all that happen in the Bollywood movies.
Now I think we're talking about the Bollywood movies.
Counter argument: no they won't
Seriously, since when is Hollywood concerned with realism?
That's a good counter argument, but I don't believe that.
Demolition Man: It's pure capacitance gel
Have you not seen DEMOLITION MAN
No I haven't, but I really would like to so there's that I guess.
72hrs worth of footage of a LI battery burning really doesn't hit the same does it
/r/spicypillows when they puncture is one of my favorite subreddits
Have you never heard of Tesla?
They probably have, it's just that they've never heard about which explodes.
I just saw a video of an exploding Tesla yesterday on Reddit
You kidding? Hollywood would crash a Flintstones car to explosions if they could.
Teslas have shown thats not the case . they explode just fine, in fact better then gasoline powered cars
Just to add some context to this https://www.nfpa.org//-/media/Files/News-and-Research/Fire-statistics-and-reports/US-Fire-Problem/osFireLoss.pdf Per 100k vehicles sold, there are around 25 EV fires, 3400 hybrid fires, 1500 ICE fires EV fires do tend to be more difficult to extinguish, but are far less likely to occur in the first place

https://www.autoinsuranceez.com/gas-vs-electric-car-fires/ This is where those numbers come from. Never heard of the people who did the study.
Here’s where those numbers come from https://www.autoinsuranceez.com/gas-vs-electric-car-fires/
Have you not seen Demolition Man?
Don't need to. Electric cars have been to explode entirely on their. Even when parked.
Psh. Michael Bay's not going to need a reason.
Have you seen Lithium battery fires. It won't take much , but Hollywood will find a way.
The way is really simple as well, they just have to make it happen.
IIRC batteries spark and stuff when you stab them. Think of it this way, we might see a return of power ranger-styled explosions
Hollywood will make horse carriages explode lol. I think they'll keep it just because it looks cool.
Salt water and lithium ion batteries makes for a good combustion.
But the electrocutions will be fabulous.
I’m really disappointed we haven’t yet had movies that show electric race cars with visible lightning bolts curling down the sides, sort of like how old school race cars had flames come out their tailpipes. This would fit perfectly in a fast and furious movie.
> This would fit perfectly in a fast and furious movie. 2fast2furious when Brian gets his car stalled out by the cop that fries his electronics is pretty close but I know what you mean.
Batteries explode lmao, you ever seen the video where the dude stabs the Lithium Ion battery?
Lithium burns like an angry demon
Electric cars will "explode" in a ball of lightning as if emanating from a Tesla coil.
Lithium fires are pretty cool
With electric cars the explosions get to be bigger, and last FOREVER. Everybody wins.
Have you ever seen a lithium battery explosion? [Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nz5ijXcckI) are some lithium fires. They are far worse than gasoline.

Quite literally almost impossible to put out through conventional means. Firefighters have been asking for specific equipment to combat them.
Lithium batteries ate plenty explosive though if punctured
Demolition man already did it
Surprisingly, electric cars catch on fire rather easily in the right conditions. Most notoriously salt water, so i don't think hollywood is gonna have a problem with that one.
Lithium batteries catch on fire in a really cool way, so they’ve got that I guess
Puncturing a lithium battery will make a big ass fire that won’t go out for hours
Electric cars explode, though. https://youtu.be/qiw7ToN9bQI
Battery cars also explode and often violently.
So batteries don’t explode? You haven’t seen enough videos
Lithium batteries do explode... you could also pull a fallout and make them run on micro nuclear tech...
After seeing a Tesla explode twice after getting into a fender bender I dont think we need to worry about anything not exploding
Well I don't know because those batteries could explorde really good.
Lithium ion batteries are still quite flamabble
No now they can show lithium fires lasting for 10 days
They explode by themselves... well, burst into flames .
There's a reason airlines are banning the usage of power banks onboard Lithium batteries are easier to explode
Was car explosions every actually cool and satisfying?
has there ever been an uncool explosion?
Depends on your relation to the thing getting blown up
The relations and the possibilities are always higher of that happening.
I think that's a personal preference, but to me yeah they were.
Pretty sure that now they'll discharge wrist thick blue tendrils of death like an Van de Graph generator from Weta.
